'''Workplan:'''
:At the moment I am wanting to write about the history of the housing association movement, but I know very little about it, so am having to look for information. 
:I shall probably do more on English and Scottish writers, as topics occur to me.
:Likewise British biography and British Quaker history.


In the course of writing about William Blake, I came across a topic whose neglect so far seems quite as surprising as Gandhi (this I attempted to remedy) - Michelangelo.  I do not dare write anything on Michelangelo, apart from a definition


'''An aside'''


I have recently made several contributions on topics on which I have no particular expertise, but which I happen to know about.  It seems to me that as long as I am cautious in making assertions, it is better for this information to appear.  I hope that those more expert will expand these edits, but I doubt whether they can be contradicted. --[[User:Martin Wyatt|Martin Wyatt]] 21:31, 9 March 2013 (UTC)

Brought up mainly in West and East Africa. B A in modern history (Oxford 1964), Diploma in Public and Social Administration (Oxford 1966). Career running voluntary organisations. M A in Policy and Social Studies (Sheffield Hallam 2001). My main area of expertise was in running voluntary organisations, and my one article in a refereed academic journal (see below) was on government policy towards them.

The subjects I contribute on are history, British and French literature, social policy (less of this recently as I am getting out of date), Dartmoor, and topics which connect with these, which actually makes quite a large field. My article on the Uganda Railway is an aberration, due to the fact that I used to travel on it.
